"I heard that Lawyer Jiang's father is a murderer and is still in jail. Do you still want to marry into the Huo family?" Huo Bai asked her.
He asked people to investigate the background of the Jiang family.
With such a background, it is impossible to marry into the Huo family.
"We don't need outsiders to worry about our affairs. Mr. Huo should just focus on taking care of his own injuries." Jiang Nan said to him.
"That man is my brother. I am a member of the Huo family, not an outsider. It seems that you are the outsider." He said with a smile.
"I'm not necessarily an outsider. What if one day I kidnap your brother and bring him to my house to be my son-in-law?" Jiang Nan deliberately angered him, just to tease him.
"Ahem!" Huo Bai was shocked by her words. He immediately looked at his brother and couldn't help but sneered: "What is the status of our Huo family? Will he marry into your family? Are you kidding me?"
Jiang Qian really couldn't stand that man, as if her sister was very curious about their family.
"Huh, don't tell me what your Huo family's status is. My sister is liked by many men, so I don't care about marrying into your Huo family. Now I am just trying to please you for my father's sake.
Don’t worry, we won’t even bother to talk to you in the future! Who cares about you? Aren’t there men with three legs all over the world? "
As soon as she finished speaking, Huo Yunzhou took the bowl in front of Jiang Nan and said in a cold voice, "Since you are so stubborn, you can leave now."
"Hey... this person is really difficult to be. No matter how you say it, you are not a human being inside and out. I say I care about you. I am ridiculed by the Huo family to the point where I am nothing. I say I don't care about you. I think I am heartless. It's really tiring."
Jiang Nan couldn't help but sigh, put down half of his chopsticks, stood up and called his sister: "Come on, let's go out to eat."
If she had known in high school that he had a high background and that his family were so snobbish, she would never have pursued him.
"Yes." Jiang Qian stood up and left the table.
Walking to the small living room, Jiang Qian looked at a large bag of mixed red beans and mung beans placed next to the coffee table. She stopped suddenly and kicked it down angrily!
"Wow..." Red and green beans jumped everywhere.
Well, she was forced to share the beans here for two or three days, which made her suffer from back pain, dizziness, and almost made the man angry to death!
Huo Bai looked at the beans on the floor and frowned, "I shouldn't have given her a chance to forgive her, I should have sent her to the police."
When Jiang Nan reached the door, he suddenly stopped and did not look back. He only said domineeringly, "If you want to litigate, I will accompany you at any time. It is not certain who will get into the lawsuit in the end."
After saying this coldly, she took her sister and left.
After entering the elevator, Jiang Qian pursed her lower lip and said to her,
"I'm sorry, sister, I was a little impulsive just now. Is there no other way besides Huo Yunzhou's help with my father's matter?"
"Let me think about it, you don't have to blame yourself too much." Jiang Nan didn't blame her. The Huo family kept belittling her, mocking her and sarcastically, and she couldn't bear it for a long time.
…
In the afternoon, Jiang Nan went to court and ended the case of the jewelry group's spy employees, causing the defendant jewelry company to pay a large sum of money and publish an apology in the newspaper.
In the evening, she invited her colleagues to have fun at the bar, and Lu Chengfeng also came. The two of them hadn't talked in private for many days.
When meeting or bumping into each other at the law firm, both of them speak in formulaic ways.
"How are you and Huo Yunzhou doing these days?" Lu Chengfeng, who was sitting in the middle of the sofa, asked her.
"He and I are not a couple to begin with, so why not?" Jiang Nan said with a smile, picking up the red wine and taking a sip.
"What about you, what have you been busy with lately?" she asked casually. Sitting there was boring anyway.
"I'm not busy with anything. I have a small pet, and I take it for walks in my free time. Sometimes it's easier and happier to get along with pets than with people." Lu Chengfeng said with a smile, shaking a glass of wine in his hand.
"That's true." She nodded.
At this time, several people came to the booth next door. They were Huo Yunzhou and others from Jiuding Law Firm. When Jiang Nan saw him, their eyes collided in mid-air, one was cold and the other was indifferent.
She quickly looked away, and deliberately turned her body slightly to face Lu Chengfeng, so as not to see someone...
"What kind of pet do you have?" she asked curiously, taking the red wine bottle and adding it to him, and then poured herself a glass.
"A border collie, he's very smart." Lu Chengfeng said and couldn't help but glance at Huo Yunzhou opposite him. Are they at odds?
"I know, the dog with the highest IQ." She took a sip of wine and said.
In the booth opposite, Huo Yunzhou glanced at her and Lu Chengfeng, his expression unconsciously dark...
"You two haven't gotten along yet?" Ye Ming asked him. They had a falling out just because of one sentence in the private room of the reception last night. What a plastic love!
Huo Yunzhou withdrew his gaze, poured a glass of wine, folded his long legs and leaned on the back of the sofa without saying a word.
"Do you know why handsome men are always surrounded by ordinary-looking women, and beautiful women are always surrounded by ordinary men?"
"Why?" he asked in a low voice.
"Because both the handsome guy and the beautiful girl are very proud. They both feel that they are both so outstanding, so handsome and beautiful, so why should they coax each other in such a low manner?"
"They prefer to find partners who are slightly inferior to themselves."
"However, Jiang Nan is an exception. She has always been coaxing you to please you. You are quite ruthless sometimes." Ye Ming laughed at him.
"..." Huo Yunzhou's eyes were deep and silent.
"I don't think you two can get together." He asserted with a smile.
Huo Yunzhou turned to look at him with a calm expression. Hearing his words, he felt inexplicably unhappy...
Then he looked at her and Lu Chengfeng, who were very close to each other and looking at their phones together. They were still talking and laughing, and there was a cold look in their eyes...
Jiang Nan was looking at the photos and videos of dogs on his phone and said with a smile:
"It's so amazing. It can jump so high to catch a Frisbee. It even knows how to eat and holds the rice bowl in its mouth for you. It's so cute!"
"It also knows how to turn on the air conditioner and turn on the TV to watch." Lu Chengfeng said.
"Really? Why do you look like a child?" she said with a smile.
Huo Yunzhou heard her laughter getting louder and louder, and felt it was even more harsh. Huh, isn't it just a dog? He looked like he had never seen the world.
Jiang Nan drank a few more glasses of wine tonight, stood up a little drunk, and was about to go to the bathroom. Lu Chengfeng also stood up immediately:
"Are you drunk? Do you need me to accompany you?"
"No, I can do it myself. I'm not too drunk." She declined. She wasn't too drunk in the first place.
Ye Ming looked towards them and whispered to his best friends in a gossipy voice, "You see, as soon as you separate from Jiang Nan, someone will immediately stick to you."
"Go to the bathroom." After Huo Yunzhou said that, he stood up and went to the bathroom.
When Jiang Nan came out of the bathroom, she saw someone standing in the corridor smoking. She just glanced at him and walked over against the other wall——
"Can Lu Chengfeng help you save your dad?" he asked with a sudden chuckle.
